Posted November 2, 2015 So, because of my growing need for an acceptable phone (Wildfire S doesn't cut it at all), I'm looking around for a fairly decent phone, but one without an 800 AUD pricetag. My first instinct was to go with the OnePlus 2, but I'm unsure of that decision because of the lack of front facing speakers and the bewildering release of the OnePlus X (that damn invite system man). My second call badum tiss was to the Moto G, though I believe it just lacks in areas that I desire (and the price reflects that). I'm quite intrigued with the Moto X, and I might pick it up, though I'd like to get a better understanding of competing smartphones. So fire away with some suggestions and why. Cheers!

Posted November 2, 2015 Author The one plus X will be availlable without invite the next moth,but maybe thats too late for you I've already signed up for an invite, so I'll possibly get one in the next week or so. I'm more interested in where or not it's a better option than the more expensive Moto X or such. CPU: Intel i7 8700K | CPU Cooler: be quiet!

Nokia Lumia 940. You'll be able to find one on sale soon and its a BEAST of a phone. If that is too expensive then there is a Lumia 640 that can satisfy your pocketbook. Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it. Take some time, and explain your issue, please!
